 Ancient tribe of Maya passed on a legend that tells of the 13 crystal sculls able to save the world from a terrible catastrophe. Once in 1927 a British archeologist Mitchell-Hedges was able to confirm the Mayan legend through his own discovery: when the man was clearing debris from atop a ruined temple at the ancient Mayan city of Lubaantum his daughter found one such skull made out of pure quartz.
Later a few more of these mysterious artifacts came into possession of people in different parts of the world. Places where the human sized ancient crystal skulls have been found are generally various ruins and many are guarded by descendants of indigenous people throughout the world.
The skulls have mystical qualities: they can bring their owners into the state of hypnosis, cause people to hallucinate or have dreams about ancient Indians.
Some say they can even make wishes come true.
According to the Crystal
Links research a conservator and restorer Frank Dorland studying one of
the skulls discovered that it had zygomatic arches acting as light
pipes, using principles similar to modern optics, to channel light from
the base of the skull to the eye sockets.
The eye sockets in turn
were miniature concave lenses that also transferred light from a source
below, into the upper cranium. Finally, in the interior of the skull
was a ribbon prism and tiny light tunnels, by which objects held
beneath the skull could be magnified and brightened. As a result, when
placed upon a source of light, the skull acquired glowing eyes and
appeared to be on fire.
Yet the origins and the
manufacturing of the skulls remain inexplicable. World Mystery Research
Center reports that several of ancient skulls have been brought to
Hewlett-Packard, located in the San Francisco area. Hewlett- Packard,
long known as a manufacturer of printers and computer systems, has one
of the most extensive scientific and crystal research laboratories in
the world.
The scientist working at
HP, who had a chance to work with some of these ancient crystal skulls
were hard pressed to explain how a primitive culture could have carved
crystal into such precise shapes and especially against the natural
axis of the crystal without the use of sophisticated tools!
Thus far, four types of
ancient quartz skulls are known including clear quartz, amethyst
(purple), rose quartz (pink) and smoky quartz (from grey to black). It
may be that these magic gifts of the ancestors would assist humanity in
surviving the doomsday of 2012, as was foretold by the enigmatic Maya
civilization.
